    Question Secure way to store passwords in settings file

    The title itself describes everything but let's mention that i want to store user database configuration [username/server/password], but how can i keep the db password safely ? should i encrypt it?
    I see the Amarok project also save the user's database password, but i couldn't figure it how!
    Thanks

    I found also storing passwords for use later, but i'm not sure it's pretty right way!
